Hi all, I'm new to Game-ex, but have been Mame-ing for some time. So I just installed Game-ex and upgraded my Mame to 1.08. I have both a traditional mouse and a wireless trackball hooked up to my PC. Obviously they both work in windows, but only the mouse works in Game-ex and Mame (in-game), not the trackball. Any ideas to rectify this? The mouse is on serial, the trackball on USB.

well i don't know if you wanted to use both in mame. if you wanted just the trackball, you can try one of the interfaces from ultimarc, or happ controls. (i'd go with happ, ultimarc's Ipac is awesome, but their interface for trackballs is hit or miss). either way this may solve the problem.

Did you hit TAB and configure INSIDE of mame?

I have a USB mouse, PS/2 X-ARCADE mouse, and a USB Spinner (whichi s identified as a mouse - y axis only

They show up as MOUSE 1 and MOUSE 2 - didnt setup the real mouse in mame

I am using Windows 2003 server ... but should be like XP at the mouse level

Well no, this doesn't solve my problem as the trackball is a mouse trackball (Logitech Trackman) and I want a software solution, not hardware. Thanks for the effort though.

edit:

OK got it working, mouse 2 wasn' t configured in default controls.
